Survivors of crime are never at fault for their victimization. It is the perpetrators of these crimes who are responsible for their actions that make our campus less safe.
Sexual contact without consent is a serious crime.

Leave enough room between your car and the one ahead so you can drive around it if necessary.
Call ahead when driving to your home or apartment late at night and have someone watch you walk from your car to the residence.
Do not use electronic devices while driving! Using a cell phone divides your attention while driving and is exceptionally dangerous! 3477人 killed in 2015 by distracted drivers.

不把钥匙借出去.
Never hide your keys outside your apartment or room. Do not put your name or address on your key rings.
Do not leave valuables in your dorm room or apartment on breaks from newbb电子平台 - thieves strike heavily during breaks when they know they are less likely to be caught and there are more residences without people in them.
When in a public place, keep valuable possessions out of sight. If you must leave an area for any length of time, take personal items with you. This is especially true at the library! Don't leave your phone or laptop behind - we've taken several reports where someone left "for one minute" and came back to find their laptops and cell phones were stolen. It only takes a few seconds to steal these highly transportable items!
